At Margo's elbow is a small T.V. A CNN world news report plays.
Margo's New York Times is open to the crossword puzzle, which she's
been doing rapidly, in ink. Clearly this is a woman who likes order,
with a mind that can handle more than one thing at a time.
An alarm on her watch beeps and she fills in the last two lines of the
crossword puzzle, makes one final note on the fossil specimens, and
shuts off the T.V. She reaches for her back pack and looks out at
CENTRAL PARK with remarkably clear eyes.
HELICOPTER SHOT... Swooping over the fall foliage of the Park, a riot
of color and botanical life... The camera picks out MARGO'S BICYCLE
making its way along the winding roads, dodging taxi cabs. Margo wears
jeans, a work shirt, a fine blue gabardine jacket with a rhinestone
DOUBLE HELIX PIN. On her back is a LEATHER BACK PACK which holds her
lap top computer. She emerges from the park, catches the green light
and rolls up to...
EXT. MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY - DAY
As Margo arrives, the camera moves up and over the building, comes to
rest on the imposing turrets, intersecting roof lines, and Gothic
arches of the MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY. This is not an ordinary
building; it's a 19th century monument to science and mankind. The
structure fills an entire city block.
Happy visitors pour into the museum as Margo takes the imposing wide
stone steps two at a time. We hear SCREAMS of pleasure and release,
the normal raucous noises of a large group of THIRD GRADE CHILDREN.
Margo is amused to find herself surrounded by kids. Their teacher,
MRS. BEASLEY, a stern woman in glasses with a thick New York accent,
calls after them as they all head inside.
MRS. BEASLEY
Don't run, children! Stay with your
partner and do not run! If anyone
runs they will be sent back to the
bus!
Ignoring Mrs. Beasley, TWO BOYS charge past Margo. HENRY and LARRY.
Henry has a buzz cut; Larry has rasta dread knots. Both are 8 years
old, wear high top sneakers and shorts so big they graze their ankles.
MRS. BEASLEY
Henry! Larry! What did I just say!
You walk right this minute! Did you
hear me?!
